The Adler theatre was a huge part of my childhood. I was a big city girl living in Chicago, but every year my family would visit my grandfather and his realitives living in Neillsville at least twice a year. If you have ever visited Neilsville in the 60,s and 70,s there was not a lot of activities but we created our own and they are some of the best memories of my childhood. The Adler theatre’s price was 35 cents for admission. Even in chicago we were charging $2.00. this was incredible for a young child and young teen. We went to the movies every night. We memorized the lines in the movies and could quote them at great length. Some of my favorites were the Impossible Years with David Niven. It was so timely, and the best was Funny Girl with Barbara Streisand. Wish I could see these movies again at the Adler.
